【题目】Dear Ms．Smith，

It is with great interest and enthusiasm that I am applying for the arts education internship (实习)advertised in Sunday’s New York Times．This position is exactly what I am looking for and an ideal opportunity for me to use my knowledge，educational background，and experience．

My arts education at Pratt Institute has helped me develop a firm foundation in the arts．The courses I have completed at Pratt，along with my study abroad in Paris，has prepared me well for a position in arts education．I have always enjoyed a passion for the arts but my undergraduate (本科)education has taken my interest to a whole new level．I not only enjoy doing art but I find myself even more enthusiastic when I have the opportunity to teach what I have learned．

For the past two summers I have worked directly with children at CityArts．These experiences were amazing since my responsibilities included planning and directing major projects that were planned for the summer program that goes on each year for local children interested in the arts．I was given a concept at the beginning of each summer and I had complete control of how the projects were to be completed．The children were the creative force and often were the inspiration for the artwork that was eventually presented to the public．

I am very excited about the summer opportunity with the Children’s Museum of the Arts since I know that I can definitely make a positive contribution while doing what I love，teaching art to children．I will contact you in one week to discuss my candidacy(候选资格)and see if you have any questions about my education or experience．Thank you for your time and consideration．

Sincerely，

Samantha R．Gray

【题目】For the last couple of weeks, I had been stuck in front of my computer working on a project that was very important to me. My every waking hour was consumed by the project and although I imagined that I would feel happy after completing parts of the project, I was confused to find that instead, I was feeling rather depressed. I tried a range of methods to help cheer myself up. I had a relaxing bath, cooked a delicious meal to enjoy with my family and even watched a lighthearted movie, but to no avail. It was only when I turned to meditation(沉思)for a solution that the answer came to me: turn to nature!

The very next day, I grabbed my camera and a bottle of water and set off to spend a few hours walking in a nature reserve, even though it was pouring with rain. Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again. To be honest, I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping along the path singing, "I'm singing in the rain", a song I used to sing when I was a child. I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inner children and as a result we restrain(限制) our own spirits, which only leads to depression and stress.

Interestingly, it has been shown that people who spend 40 minutes walking in a nature reserve have a drop in their blood pressure levels, but this does not happen when they spend a similar amount of time walking in a busy city centre.

If you feel a little low in spirit and know that you have spent too much time indoors, relax completely, remove your shoes and let your inner child come out and play.

A. take photos

B. cheer herself up

A.a bath can make people relaxed

B. adults should express their inner feelings freely

C. walking in a busy city centre harms people's health

As far as I can remember, grow up in Ohio left many good memories and very few bad ones．We rented a home near a lake where I spent good time of my life．I attended to school to learn a variety of course，and went camping overnight in the woods．My dog and I would go fishing in the lake that I mentioned early．During the winter we will come down at night and go ice-skating on the lake．In Ohio the snow could be heavily sometimes and too deep to walk in as I was not that tall at the time．It was not until I was sixteen and moved to California when the life was changed．This was a tough change for me because the area total differed from Ohio．There was no rivers or lakes to fish in at a11．

【题目】Severely disabled people may soon be able to use their noses to write, drive a wheelchair or surf the Internet, thanks to a device (装置) developed by doctors in Israel.

The device will be used by breathing in and out through the nose, according to a study. Healthy people who tested the device quickly learned to play computer games and write sentences by sniffing. Encouraged by the results, the researchers decided to test their device on people who are paralyzed (瘫痪) but whose intelligence remains normal. Ten paralyzed who tested the device quickly learned to use their noses to write words, open a webpage, copy words and put them into a search engine.

With their success in helping severely disabled people to communicate * the researchers decided to make use of the new technology to design an electric wheelchair to be driven by sniffs.

Ten healthy people easily mastered sniff—driving a wheelchair through a maze (迷宫), and a 30-year-old man who had been paralyzed from the neck down for six years was as good a sniff-driver as the healthy participants at his second attempt. In other words, a paralyzed person could use the sniff controller to drive an electric wheelchair.

At the moment, sniff-controlled technology is still in the stage of development, and the Weizmann Institute has already applied for a patent on the device. "Ill be very happy if it can help us to make money, but the real problem is that I hope someone will develop it, because this would help a lot of people," said Sobel, one of the lead researchers of the study.

【1】What’s the purpose of the passage?

A. To introduce a new invention.

B. To equip the disabled with life skills.

C. To show the nose's special functions.

D. To instruct doctors to apply for a patent.

【2】In the test, the paralyzed people with normal intelligence can use their nose to ______.

A. type long sentences quickly

B. play computer games easily

C. enter a website without much difficulty

D. communicate with others successfully

【3】With the help of the sniffing device, a 30-year-old disabled man ______.

A. spent six years learning how to drive a wheelchair

B. failed to drive through the maze at his first attempt

C. took the wheelchair controlled by healthy participants

D. managed to drive an electric wheelchair by sniffing

【4】From the last paragraph, we can infer that the sniff-controlled technology ______.

A. will be applied to other fields of research

B. needs further developing to serve more people

C. has become an important patented invention

D. shows the wisdom and talents of Israel doctors
